Title: Had a laugh earlier
Post by: waspy on 02 October 2009, 16:44:12
I was out in the woods with Mutley & we usually find some where nice & quiet to sit, once you've been still for about ten mins all the wild life comes out again.
These two (vermin) Grey Squirrels >:( came rushing through the trees & then down this tree infront of us, Mutley was up & down at the tree before i could say "come back". These squirrels didn't know which way to go & she was chasing them around before they quickly went up the same tree as they came down. I would've love to have seen her get one, i rather hate them >:( >:( >:(
Bloody Victorians :'( :( >:(

Strangely I cant stand dogs. Well, the dogs are OK I suppose, it's the owners who let them foul everywhere and bark all the time I object to.

"Owners      bark all the time"???

Shame she didn't get one of the "tree rats", my mom keeps feeding one in her back garden even though I've told her of the damage and destruction of our birdlife that they do. I'm always shooting them on the land I have in Wales and the wild birds, finches, nuthatches, tits etc. are flourishing nicely.  :y :y

Sorry to disagree with you, but I have to park under trees at work, and if I end up in the wrong bit it is not uncommon to have 20 bird dropping on you car in one day. Personally I now hate birds and would do anything to keep them away from my place. ;D ;D ;D

Only 20?
I park under a large Fir tree in my garden, & because I'm at the edge of a forest, all of the Wood Pigeons & Collared Doves in North Hampshire dump over the Traktor

Buy a shotgun & shoot them over 'open sights' then mate, they get a slight chance of escape that way, much more 'humane' LOL  ;D :y

Now that's the bit that makes a mockery of the law.

I'm never gonna be issued a cert because of my past behaviour, yet my old lady (who incredibly has not so much as a parking ticket to her name) was granted a cert to keep up to 5 shotguns (and as much ammo as we like) in OUR house...and it was granted without so much as an eyelid being batted  :o :o

A legal 22 Webley Exocet air rifle with BSA sights & carbine barrel will drop a bunny from 60 yards so would piss a squirrel up a tree!!! 8-)

If Pete's mate is on a firearms ban, then he can't even so much as pick up a catapult without going straight to jail.
